Nintendo Everything

The Nintendo UK has started taking pre-orders on all sorts of Pokemon games.

First, you can reserve Pokemon Gold and Pokemon Silver here. These are the boxed versions that have a download code inside for the 3DS Virtual Console releases.

Pokemon Ultra Sun and Pokemon Ultra Moon are also up here. Figures are included as pre-order bonuses.

Ubisoft has now come out with a new Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle trailer specifically focusing on Rabbid Peach. Watch it below.

Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack is launching on Switch later this month. It was always planned as a physical title in Japan, but we now have confirmation that North America is receiving the same treatment.

Amazon is taking pre-orders for the Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack here. The listing shows that Nighthawk Interactive will be publishing. Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack is coming to Switch digitally at the end of this month, but we may have to wait a little bit longer for the packaged version. Amazon lists a tentative date of October 31.

Skyrim Remastered was featured for the Switch at Gamescom 2017. Below is a video showcasing tablet mode with the joycon grip.

The Super NES Classic Edition website has updated with some pre-order news for North America. In total, six retailers will be accepting reservations. These include Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, Target, Toys “R” Us, and Walmart.

Both Best Buy and Amazon took pre-orders earlier today… at some ridiculous times, especially for those on the East Coast like myself. We did not report on those, and I’m terribly sorry for that. Nick was having some issues on his end, and Matt isn’t really familiar with the pre-order situation as our European correspondent – not to mention the tons of Gamescom news that dropped earlier today keeping him busy. We were also expecting Nintendo to provide specifics about the pre-order situation, but that didn’t happen, and as much as I’d like to be, I can’t be watching over things the full 24 hours each day – or I’d probably die.

With all of that said, we’ll be keeping track of pre-orders as best we can. GameStop pre-orders may actually begin later today. Employees are being told to expect a “special announcement that will require immediate attention”, so stay tuned.

Circle Entertainment has announced that two of their games, Koi and Shelter Generations, are making their way to the Nintendo Switch.

Koi, previously released on the Wii U, is a colorful adventure game where you control a koi fish. Shelter Generations, on the other hand, seems to be a new title in the same line as Shelter and Shelter 2.

At Gamescom this week, Nintendo is showcasing the European Metroid: Samus Returns Legacy Edition at its booth. Take a closer look at the full contents below.

During the Twitch Gamescom stream earlier today, EA stopped by to show off the Switch version of FIFA 18. Technically, this is the first direct-feed footage we have of the game as opposed to it being off-screen. Check out the gameplay below.

While the Switch release date is still TBA, Rebellion’s Youtube channel has graced us with a new video highlighting seven reasons to revisit the game. You can watch the new trailer below.

OlliOlli and OlliOlli 2 may have a chance of coming to Switch. On Twitter, Roll7 put out a tweet noting that the team is thinking about porting both titles to Switch. It could be considered “even more seriously” if the tweet below receives 500 likes.

The first OlliOlli came to both Wii U and 3DS in 2015. The sequel never made it to any Nintendo platform, however.
